Annotation

This thrilling sequel to Rhuna: Crossroads is set in mystical ancient Egypt, where black magic was developed by the followers of the legendary villain the Dark Master. As strange and frightening curses plague the population, Rhuna discovers the underground organization that performs this uncanny new magic, but she can only combat it with the help of her long-lost father. Having learned from her father, some amazing new skills to empower her on the Astral Plane, Rhuna once again strives to preserve peace and harmony in the idyllic Atlan civilization.Far more challenging than fighting powerful dark forces, however, is Rhunas personal anguish when her daughter becomes involved with the leader of the black magic movement, and the once-perfect Atlan society based on utopian principles begins to crumble all around her. Shocking events escalate Rhuna's world to a breathless climax as she and her family undergo a momentous upheaval, and she is forced to make great personal sacrifices for her loved ones.
